Rohs is on-topic to Wiard, as are absurd regulation that affect all music technology manufacturers. Here is an example of how ridiculous it can really get. Copied from synth-DIY "This made me wonder if anyone manufactures environmentally friendly bullets? So I did a google and this is what I found: http://www.army-technology.com/contractors/ammunition/ruag/ This had me on the floor laughing. I quote: "The fragmentation hand grenade has been chosen by the British Armed Forces as the best performing in the world. This grenade is NATO certified. SWISS P - Sniper's choice. Our high-performing ammunition for special purposes, with outstanding precision and matched ballistic properties. SWISS P - Sniper's choice. The latest innovation: Tactical for combating targets behind glass. No deflection when shooting through glass at up to 30° and the solid projectile does not splinter. We offer a wide range of less-lethal solutions for the 40mm LV grenade launcher and for manual throwing." followed up by... "One of our specialities is the development and production of 'Green Ammo'. We have a non-toxic and lead-free solid bullet with the absolutely reliable Sintox® priming technology. This technology is, for example, applied in the 9mm Luger Self. We are also developing 'Green Bullets' for rifles."
